achieving the highest quality care. Above all, she will exhibit honesty, integrity and professionalism in a gentle and compassionate manner.

Dr. Tadano is married to Chris and has three children (Ashley, Kelsea and Logan). She enjoys traveling and spending quality time with her family. She's also had the opportunity to serve abroad on outreach mission trips to both Africa and Kazakhstan. One of her favorite quotes is by Francoise Chateaubriand:

"The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him, he's always doing both."

Dr. Kellen Tadano is a member of numerous different organizations, including:

  • American Dental Association
  • California Dental Association
  • San Diego Dental Society
  • Women Dentist Association
  • Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation
